....... lisa........'s Journal

rock n' roll
i just ate a three ounce can of potted meat product for 5 bucks.
ya, i rock. and i think i am going to be vegetarian now.....

war, what is it good for
wow, i haven't typed in this thing since thanksgiving. i guess i lost my motivation for my "internet" life. well, what little i had of it. anywho, i guess i should say something but i really don't want to spill my life onto some web page for anyone to read. ...not that anyone reads it anyway... but who can resist having total stangers know the most intimate details of your life?

my sister is coming here on april 12. i'm excited about that. i always wanted an older sibbling, when i was younger, that i could go visit. then i leave on may 6 to go back to dayton. i'm not sure if i'm ecited about that one or not... it could be fun or it could just be depressing and remind me again why i moved. we shall see.

shit, time to get ready for work. that's all i ever do nowadays. work, work, work

happy freakin' thanksgiving
well, today is thanksgiving.
or so it's suppossed to be.
this morning mary and i got up got dressed and were ready to go to los gatos to have thanksgiving with some family friends. only, when we went outside to leave, i noticed the car was jacked up and missing the rear wheel. just a big gaping space staring at me. fucking assholes stole our god damn wheel off the car.they could have at least left us the lug nuts so we could put the spare on but...no. and of course nothing is open due to it being thanksGIVING so, we had no way to get a new wheel or lug nuts.
we ended up taking a cab there. a $120 cab ride to los gatos. cool. not.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME!!!!!
today is my b-day. happy birthay me.
it was good i worked and the drank a bottle of champange on the beach.

HAPPY B-DAY LISA!!!!!

Current Mood: exanimate
Current Music: HAPPY BIRTHDAY- ME

arrrrgh
work
work
work
that's all i ever do.
work
work

and on a side note: apparently the other day someone was standing outside of my store grabbing his crotch and yelling my name..... ?

magic shoes
ok, the other day i got off work at three and mary met up with me in berekely.
we were going shopping to replace the shoes i lost (well, the SHOE i lost).
we were walking down telegraph and we ran into luke and matt.
asked them what they were doing. they said, "going to SF to get engine down tickets. wanna come?"
so we said yeah. (i can get shoes some other time)
we go back to the car drive to SF, purchase our tickets and head back for the freeway.
by this time i was telling the story of my magical shoe.
so, when we got close to the freeway mary said sarcastically, "ok, now everyone look for lisa's shoe"
so, we enter the freeway and i look to the left and guess what?????
my other fucking shoe is on the side of the freeway!!!!!!
mary slams on the brakes puts the fourways on and i run out and grab my shoe.
moral of this story: i have magical shoes.

this pair of shoes is now my lucky shoes.

on a side note, we went to halloween in the castro last night.
it was full of wierd figures, strange figures.

anywho, mary and i just sipped on tall boys and made lude comments to everyone we passed.
she grabbed some man booby too.
and there was quite a lot of ass slapping involved.

so, went to this wicked halloween party last night in SF.
drank waaaay toooo much and decided to go for a walk on the beach.
i decided to take my shoes off because they had sand in them.
i was juggling my shoes my gun and my hat.
made it back to mary's car and passed out in the back.
mary drove me home a while later.
anywho, i woke up this morning and checked my belongings.
i had my gun
i had my hat
but no shoes were to be found.
so, mary and i went back to the house where the party was in search of my shoes.
no shoes were to be found.
so, we hung out with the boys for a bit and then walked to get a sandwitch.
as we were driving back to our neck of the woods we encountered traffic on the freeway.
traffic was slow and i glanced to my right and there was one of my shoes!
in the middle of the Fing freeway.
i yelled to mary, "look! my shoe! go get it!"
she hesitated but i stopped, threw on the fourways and pushed her out of the car.
after she retrieved my shoe i made her check to see if my sock was still inside.
it was. along with a handful of sand.

moral of the story: my shoe is magical

i am still on the lookout for his mate though.
hopefully he is as magical as his brother.

last night
ah, finally, a day off work. and it's a good thing too cause i was out untill a thousand o'clock last night.
we met up with ANDRE and his crew at some dive bar in SF. it was low key but it was fun

so, i was chillin' and i look over and i saw some guy and thought to myself, "self, that guy looks familiar".
ya, he was familiar alright. it was the dude from AFI. god! those guys are everywhere.

anywho, then we were sitting at the bar and they decided to have another round before we left. i wasn't drinkin' cause, of course, i am tooooo broke. i turned to the bartender and was all, "what can i get for 7 cents?" (i found 7 cents at the bottom of my pocket along with a coupon for tampons and some lint.) she laughed and said jokingly, " that'll get you a bud light." i laughed and then she gave me a beer and told me to keep the seven cents.

then we got hassled by the cops on the way to ANDRE's house where we spent the remainder of the night.

oh, and juan got a hold of me. well, kind of. we have been playing phone tag for about a week now.

and now my day off is over and tomorrow starts the whole schedule over again. eh.

Current Mood: blank
Current Music: mos def- ms. fat booty

splash
yeah, so, i finally got to go swimming in the ocean after living here for four months.
it was good.
i had a date last night. it was with mary and a twelve pack. mary, me and the twelve pack boogied on over to ANDRE's and then we ended up eating mr. twelve pack. anywho, he was nice while he lasted. so, while ANDRE was getting more beer with bryan we talked ben into going swimming with us. so we hustled on over to the beach jumped in caught hypothermia and then got out, dressed, and went back to drink more beeeeer.
we ended up staying there until 3:15 in the morning. oops, we had planned on leaving at around 12 or 1.
whatever. it was fun.

work today, also fun (gasp! i never thought i would be saying that).
so, we engaged in war with the boys next door. we had a little bit of fun with bubble wrap and they decided to put a bucket of water on top of the door so when we opened it we would get soaked. well, guess who opened the door? yup, it was me. fortunately i did not get too wet but it drenched some of the merchandise.
we have yet to plan our next attack.......

smell ya later

blah?
hmmm...... i am bored so i am updating.
mary is out with ANDRE right now.
and where am i? on the computer.
why? because i still have no friends.

subconciously i know why.

but... i don't want to admit that to myself....

shhhhhhhhhh

anyway, i had a fight with mary today. i cried. <----- that's my sensitive side. it doesn't come out too often.

the wierdest part of all: i don't miss ohio. not in the slightest.

except for a few people there. (you know who you are)

Current Mood: depressed

could today have been any worse? the answer to that is NO.
i am running on no sleep, NO SLEEP!
and i had to be to work at 8 this morning.
got stuck in traffic. 20 minutes late to work.
i expected to get bitched out by amber but instead
she was just glad i showed up at all. which is wierd...
but i'm not complaining.
so, i didn't come home last night and i was wearing the
same clothes for two days.
and of course, the cute guy from mr. rags decided to stop
in hot topic on my day of hell.
today was the longest eight hour shift i have ever experienced.
i finally got a shower and fresh clothes but i'm trying to stay awake
because i have to go to see a aquaintance play in his band.

oooh!!! i almost forgot, mary's birthday present to me was a tv. that means i get to play video games! (even though my b-day isn't for another two months. shhh)

who sucked out the feelin?
i'm back in ohio for a temporary period of time. i was excited to see everyone for the last time but no one seems to really care. oh well. i feel as though i should have some emotion relating toward that but i could care less. i suppose it's because i know i am only going to be here for several more days (about two weeks, actually) so why should i care?

i went out to dinner with ryan tonight. we finally decided to put our differences aside and be friends. we really had no problems with each other; just incredibly stubborn.

last sunday i went cabrewing with my bro. it was awesome. we plan on gathering a huge group of people and going again this sunday.

on a side note: i made 12 bucks today and i will make a couple more tomorrow. i severely need these few extra dollars. me=broke-ass

Current Mood: full
Current Music: superdrag - who sucked out the feeling

last night was good
well, i have a job now. my first day was yesterday and it was ok. but the real fun began when mary and i entered the bart station to go home.
some large smelly guy sat next to us in the station and started staring at us. we ignored it but then he started talking to us. finally he got up and this cool guy sat next to us and we talked for a bit. then, after getting on the train, mary and i decided to go to san fransico for dinner before going home. so, we switched trains at the next station and that guy ended up getting on our train. we started talking again (his name is pierre). he suggested we go to this kick ass vietnamese place
pierre mentioned that he was going to spin jam (which is what most of you would consider a raver club). he offered for us to go with him. he also said he would show us where the vietnamese place was. so, we went out to dinner and then to this spin jam.
he tried teaching us how to spin but we are incredibly uncoordinated (mary's even worse than me). we had to cut the night short though because of our "BART curfew"
anywho, he said there is going to be a sweet party tonight and he is going to take us. it will be a nice way to spend mary's last night here.

on a side note: juan called me again. he said he's been busy. we were supposed to hang out on wednesday but i accidently stood him up. and that is a WHOLE story in itself but i am not going to take the time to tell it here.

it's official
well, it's official. my new address is E. 31st St. Oakland, California 94602.
we signed the lease today. and then got on the wrong bus that took us 45 minutes out of our way but we had nothing better to do.
now the duration of mary's time here can be spent doing whatever the hell we want to do. i think we are going to the beach tomorrow.
anywho, there's more that has happened but i'm not going to take the time to write it here. anyone who cares knows how to get a hold of me.

oh ya, robyn and mags: one of the ladies who took our picture on the 4th gave it to me the other day. it's so bad (not bad as in good either:)

Current Mood: enthralled
Current Music: depeche mode - personal jesus

no more ohio
well, once again i recieved two phone calls which made my day.

first: hot topic: they couldn't get a hold of my second reference so i gave them another and they said i might be able to start sept. 1

second: the guy who is renting out the apartment mary and i applied for called and after he ran our credit check he told us we have the apartment. we meet with him tomorrow to sign the lease and give him money.

moral of the story: i don't live in ohio anymore. i now live in oakland california. suhweet.

Current Mood: excited
Current Music: the spartans - SNL

suweet
so mary and i have seen about 95798973343 apartments in the last 4 days.
i have walked aprox. 1863872187 miles too.

the good news is i think we found a place.
it's this adorable one bedroom apartment in oakland sort of close to lake merritt.
the rent is right. everything is right.
color of building: bright-ass fucking pink.
guy who rents it: gay and super nice. (get this, he thinks we are carpet munchers)

and today he took us to his apartment in san fransico (castro) and it is lavishly decorated.
we then went to poncho villa in the mission. after that, came home and now you find me here.

i will know monday (after the credit check) whether we will be living in oakland or whether the search will continue.

mary has ants in her pants and is doing a funny dance.

Current Mood: quixotic
Current Music: farting
